So who said it was easy to keep old flames burning?Even experts could use a little divine help now and then.The easy part is to go out and be brilliant as Shakespeare.Harder--much harder--to be the light dancing in someone else's eyes.

Lights such as love require more faith than fuel.Of all leaps, the most dangerous is into the mind of your lover.Regarding miracles: What is less explicable thanRemaining in love through the long icy anguish of anger?All lovers long for freedom only slightly less than they fear it.In the end, love burns not desire but fear.Not one of us would be capable of keeping the fire burningExcept for the knowledge that it is the sweetest, best, and mostbeautiful thing in our lives.
